Hey all,

I'm just compiling a small list of characters/units/formations that allow you to reroll the deployment roll as I think this is one of the more important rolls in the game.

So far I'm got:
Heralds of the great wolf formation in Warzone: Fenris Curse of the Wulfen
Talon strike force detachment in Angels of death supplement

Can anyone else think of characters/formations that allow you to reroll this roll?

Do you mean Seize the Initiative?

The Callidus Assassin allows a reroll, with the bonus penalty for your opponent's first reserve roll.

Arkos the Faithless from Vraks.

I should have been more specific I guess. I meant the roll to see who deployed first, not the roll to pick deployment zones or the roll to seize the initiative.

The Space Wolves have a good range of deployment shenanigans.

Re-Roll deployment
Grimnar's War Council
Heralds of the Great Wolf

I know you didn't ask for it but I think it's relevant since you can effectively give your opponent first deployment, deploy in response then seize.

Seize the Initiative modifiers
Bjorn the Fell Handed -1
Grimnar's War Council -2 (has unique models)
Heralds of the Great Wolf -1 (Unique Characters are optional) so you can take more than one formation and stack the bonus.
I'm not sure if you can actually get a seize the initiative on a 1+ but you can definitely mod it down there using the Wolves.

Not quite the same, but the Light warlord table for Harlequins gives you some deployment shenanigans, too. Either +4 to Seize the Initiative, giving up to D3 units in your Warlord's detachment Deep Strike, Infiltrate or Scout before deployment, or getting the chance to re-deploy up to D3 units and your Warlord's unit after all forces have been deployed.
